Thank You Aunt Bea

My name is Jemma and I am a 23-year-old recent graduate from university. First, let me tell you that graduating during a pandemic and trying to find a job has not been fun, however, that is not the story I want tell. I am going to tell you a story about my Aunt Beatrice, who was enduringly called Bea. My Aunt was a vivacious, beautiful woman. She was the type of person that people say is beautiful inside and out. Everywhere she went people wanted to get to know her because she brought such positivity, fun and happiness. I remember as a young girl walking down the street and she floated. The sun envied her radiance as she was so bright and shined. My mother once told me that she wished she could bottle the beauty that was my Aunt and sprinkle it when needed in life, especially when life got hard.
